S’mores Popcorn

Once summer rolls around, s’mores turn into the go-to dessert around here. I love spending evenings out back around our fire. And it’s no secret that s’mores are one of our favorite desserts to indulge in, we’re well into putting a s’mores twist on every and any food we can – ha! So, it was about time to add s’mores popcorn to that list!

This sweet snack is perfect for summer – no-baking; and it’s super easy to make, the longest part is waiting for it to cool. There’s a video below showing you just how simple this is to make!

S’mores popcorn is a perfect mix of salty and sweet. You get a bit of saltiness from the popcorn and then you combine that with sweet marshmallows, Golden Grahams cereal and of course chocolate!

Ingredients to Make S’mores Popcorn:

  • popcorn
  • mini marshmallows
  • butter
  • golden grahams
  • chocolate chips

See below for the measurements and recipe instructions.

What kind of popcorn to use:

I’ve found that the best kind of microwave popcorn to use is Simply Salted. This will give you the saltiness you want, without adding extra grease from the butter. Of course, homemade popcorn would work well too! You’ll just want to be sure to add salt to your popcorn.

How to store s’mores popcorn:

You’ll want to store this in an airtight container. It’s best to serve and eat this recipe on the day you make it. It is a fairly quick, easy recipe to make. You should be able to quickly throw it together before a summer party!
